----------------------------------------
Contra Update!!
-Upgraded the speed a great ordeal I would say, by using some new tricks and ideas that I came up with, it improved the gameplay alot I think.
-Did alot of optimization which tied into my speed upgrade and I noticed alot of space consumption that was unnecsessary so I fuxed it
-Engine Almost done
----------------------------------------
Oh and as far as I know, I am not gonna port this to ASM, b/c Id rather have people wowd by the BASIC version , instead of it being overshadowed by the ASM version. |

Will it do an Archive (level) in there? and then Unarchive (level)? maybe not such a good idea, but would be cool for saving... maybe an option to archive levels and options and such? |

That's impossible in pure basic, though I think it will work in a Basic program if you use Mirage. |

The saving is very simple it only needs to save 5 peices of info.
1. Score
2. Lives
3. Continues
4. Level
5. Frame
The save will basically just make the person restart the frame that they were on that way I dont have to wrrie about the enemies or mines and stuff like that. It only requires a 5 cell list to save.
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Adding high score feature where the user can place 1-5 on high score list
-Adding loading routines |

in my 9th grade there are about 60 people (private school). about 15 people haven't had their calculator stolen and we all blame this one girl (behind her back). Well i had lost 2 calculators before this and my dad had bought me a blue one. I'm the only one in the lower/middle/high school on our campus to have a blue calculator. Well my blue calculator went missing 3 weeks before finals. I didn't believe that i had lost it and after a week of searching high and low i knew i hadn't. well, im a very outspoken person who speaks his mind, a week and a day after the calc went missing, i went to the girl that we believe steals them and gave her a piece of my mind. I cursed numerous times (u can guess the names i called her) and told her to give me back my god**** calculator, threating her and such. I did this for the full 10 hours i was with her (had a baseball game and shes the scorekeeper) i especally gave her hell at the baseball game. well, my calculator turned up the next day in the place i had looked the most, under all the backpacks kept in the ninth grade hallway. This assures me that she had it probably thinking that it was pretty and i wouldnt notice. except for the fact that my calculator is BLUE. u cant lose a blue calculator in a school full of black ones. plus this has happened before after a friend of mine teased the suspect and her calc went missing. After apologizing her calc was found the next day. |

Why would you do that? You need to prove that she stole it before blaming the girl!

Pathetic. You do not deserve to have your calculator back. How hard would it have been just to ask for it? |

Sir Robin its common sense man. after she stole it (its no longer a question whether she did or not) and i asked for it back do u think she would give it back? Isnt the point of stealing something to keep it? Its after she got threatened 2 get in trouble that i got my calc back. nice one arcane wizard.

She's probably just trying to get some attention, that's what most kids are.
And you can't say asking would never work because you never tried, did you?

If she wouldn't have given it back when you asked for it, do you really think threatening her would make such an impression on her? I wouldn't care (not that I'd steal your calc in the first place). |

I think she'd care if you'd have a 12 gauge shotgun aimed at her head. |

How would she get expelled though, unless she admits she stole the calc they aren't going to do it. And politely asking (properly said ) gets the expulsion message across without being rude.
